[SWIG and Java](http://www.swig.org/Doc1.3/Java.html#module_packages_classes)  
SWIG has an option -package for specifying java package path, but I cannot find an easy way for doing it with CMake. How about adding it?

You can specify this option by using `COMPILE_OPTIONS` source property (see [UseSWIG](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/module/UseSWIG.html) module).
